The Official Kobe X iD thread

I really wanna do a chaos pair but I'm indecisive on if I should use crimson or university for the lining and midsole splatter, as well as what sole I should go with. Any insight would help
In general i think most ppl go red university red for the specks,  and for the liner just depends how much you want the liner to pop or not.  look at the images section to see what you like.  i believe both options are in there to give you a better idea.  I think both will turn out pretty decent. 
 
 
I was getting tired of waiting for my darn iD's so I pulled out my Kobe collection and I think I'm ok to wait a few more weeks..

not in the family pic is the Shark Jaw iD I kept since it had the blue GITD soles and a chopped WTK9
 
 
I think the Bright Crimson is closer to the VI Chaos CW, which is what I based mine on. And sole for Chaos should be Glow Volt - as far as what's available. All IMO.
Agreed. I made my chaos pair just like that. Crimson liner and speckles with volt GITD sole and purple medial, tongue and laces. Then I iD'd the tongue too.
 
 
10 Highs fit completely different than the 9's - tongue doesn't flop. I know people love the 9 (me included), but I think the 10 high is superior to the 9. I can't bring myself to buy the Arrowhead personally, but still on the lookout for some Sharks.

But, prolly need to take it easy a minute, with 4 MC and 3 Mambacolors ordered, in what, less than 30 days.
I would pick up a Rose Gold at a discount for ball but I don't really see myself wearing the highs at all casually.. main reason I got the MP9 and WTK9 chopped.. prolly gonna chop up another MP9 for back up.. Arrowhead I guess is too plain for some but for me it's a subtle but well executed.. very versatile and can wear with almost any outfit..

I personally have not seen the bright crimson lining but I will soon.. I've seen the univ Red lining in person is it's quite nice.. for my only attempt of the Chaos, I didn't use any speckles for a more subtle look I guess.. but if I was to put speckles, I would make it match with the lining so the whole shoes flows better.. for soles, I would def go with Volt GITD soles.. good luck with what you design.. there's a lot of pics in here that you can use as a guideline.. 
 
I actually like the gum sole pair better.
yeah, that weave on the gum sole pair is

Sometimes I forget why people collect all these shoes and then I see all the replies to one collection post and it reminds me why people end up with so many of the same shoe. Lol! Y'all crazy.

Anyway, my iD showed up....

Will take more and better ones when I get a chance.

My 2 pairs. It's bugging me out how much brighter the volt pair MC looks. Are they really that different or is it one of those 'mind playing tricks' and the different color combos make them appear that different.

this and DH28 pair is nice! as for the grey medial is more vibrant than the black medial, I think its all on how we look at the shoe. they shoe may seem darker because we see the black medial. like this pair by PeruWhite, it seems vibrant even if we don't see the medial side. I bet if he shows us that it is black medial, it will all of a sudden look darker and not vibrant.

There is definitely a significant difference in the color.

You cannot deny the difference in the shade of MC weave when they are side by side. Its like they keep the volt weave to a minimum with the black midsole and black uppers.
 
As for the brightness/weave difference questions, I'll post some shots when my third pair comes in - all have Volt swoosh/black medial, but different outsole/speckle combos - will see if they photograph differently.

Kinda beginning to wonder if they color the inside of the shoe as well as the medial outside. Could account for the darker color - especially if the actual medial weave color is the wolf grey.

I agree. There's no way around it. The weaves are very different. Just odd to me in a way that they'd do that.
 
my MCs came in today, man i didnt think the asym looked bad in pictures, but for some reason seeing mine in person, they just look bad to me. not sure if i'll hold onto them
